Beginning Saturday, the Stanislaus County Fair is hosting several horse show and livestock events before the Fair opens.
“Horses are a symbol of the Stanislaus County Fair,” said Carl Richter, Horse Department Superintendent. “The Draft Horse has been on the fair logo for as long as I can remember. The 4-H, FFA, and open horse exhibitors have been a long-standing tradition that keeps our community connected with our fair.”
